USDA and SBA Sign Agreement to Protect Farmers and Small Businesses from Regulatory Lawfare
The USDA and SBA signed a Memorandum of Understanding to combat what they describe as lawfare against agricultural producers and small businesses. This partnership aims to protect ranchers and farmers from weaponized regulations by creating a joint system to handle complaints. The initiative allows both agencies to intake and resolve matters submitted through the USDA Lawfare Portal that involve other federal agencies.
Secretary Rollins and SBA Administrator Kelly signed the agreement during a live event to advance the Farmer and Rancher Freedom Framework. This move is part of a broader Trump administration effort to target regulatory and enforcement actions that officials claim unfairly burden rural communities. The agencies will now work together to categorize and manage these cases to ensure federal oversight does not overreach.
